A family of three has been found dead
inside their mini flat on Church Street, Lagos Island, after allegedly
inhaling some chemical substance.
Who sprayed the chemical into the
apartment had been a thing of concern to the victims’ family members and
residents of the area.
The deceased are 30-year-old Ibrahim Yusuf, a tricycle rider; his wife, Saidat; and their five-year-old daughter, Rodiat.
PUNCH Metro learnt that
neighbours had heard a scream from the victims’ apartment in the early
hours of Monday which they ignored, thinking it was a sign of
disagreement between the couple.
At about 2pm, Ibrahim’s friend, Quadri Aderibigbe, who lives on Freeman Street, said he became worried when he did not see him.
He said, “Usually by 7am he should be at
the park. When it was 9am and I did not see him, I sent a boy to check
on him. The boy came back and said he knocked on his door but didn’t get
any response. When it was 2pm, I went to see his mother if she had seen
him, she said no.
“We decided to go to his house. As we
got there, we heard a faint voice from inside, but the door was locked.
We forcefully entered through the window and met Ibrahim and Rodiat
dead. Saidat was still breathing. There was no food around them to
suggest they took a poison.”
